Padres vs Brewers Prediction
I’ll lean toward the Padres. Cease has pitched pretty well over his first three starts this year. In his latest pair, Cease has given up two earned in 12.0 innings combined on six hits and four walks. He should be able to notch a quality outing here if all goes well.
On Monday in the opener, San Diego posted a nice offensive effort with 12 team hits. Pretty much all the action occurred in the one inning, but it was a nice comeback after an early hole all the same. I like the Padres to keep it rolling on Tuesday.
